You can complete darshan of all the temples in 2 days provided you plant your journey as under. You should engage a Car for 2 days, without which it may not be possible. Instead of staying at Kumbakonam you can stay first at Mayavaram. Staring from Mayavarm in morning 6 a.m. or so you go to first to Thiruvenkadu (Bhudhan), Vaitheeswarn Koil (Angarahan). This will be over before noon and after lunch you can proceed to Kilaperumpallam (Kethu) and Tirunallar (Sani) and back to Mayavarm. Next day you can start from Mayavaram with bag and baggage checking out of hotel and go to Suryanaar Koil (Suryan) near Aduthurai and then to Kanjanur (Sukran) which is nearby, then via Kumbakonam to Tirunageswarm (Ragu) Alangudi (Guru) and finally Thingallur (Chandran). and back to Kumbakonam for night stay. In between you can take lunch, tiffin etc.
In all the temples you can do ordinary archanas but in Vaitheswarn koil you have to do 5 archans in 5 sannathis. At Tirunallar (Those who have sani dosham) take bath duly applying gingily oil at the tank called Nalatheertham (it is believed Kind Nala took bath here after sani released him. Here also only archanai and some cash in Hundi is enough. You can compleate the Dharshan nicely. Do not follow any other route and this is the correct and short route one after other. Now some thing anout the NavagrahaStalas -
There is a cluster of Navagraha Temples dating from the Chola dynasty near Kumbakonam in Tamil Nadu. Each temple is located in a different village. Each of these temples is considered an abode of one of the Navagrahams. However, the majority of these temples are dedicated to Shiva. The Surya temple is the only one dedicated to the Graham. The Surya temple was built around the 11th or 12th century C.E. The other temples were built earlier, ranging back to 7th-9th century.
